What electric fuel pump should i get??
I am getting an electric fuel pump for when I put a blazer tank in my truck this summer. I like the Holley fuel pumps but which one should I get:
"Red" fuel pump: 7psi, 97gph free flow "Blue" fuel pump: 14psi, 110 gph free flow or are there better ones? Thanks HotRod

One thing to keep in mind Edelbrock recommends 6psi or less for their carb's , so you may need a fuel regulator also .
I'm running a Carter but think the Holly is a better unit.

Tech tip on electric pump instalation.
If you use o;d shock bushings between the pump mounting bolts and the frame, the buzzing noise won't make you go crazy. |

Having used all of the above I would suggest neither. Theyr'e both WAY TOO LOUD ! The Mallory gerotor design is far far far superior to the holley pumps and is so quiet you can barely hear it. Its more expensive at $140 but believe me if you buy one you will consider it the best money you ever spent! I'm running a carter mechanical pump right now but if and when I do switch to an electric it'll be to the mallory. I have run them in the past on other cars and it is the difference in night and day compared to the holley.
